The engine turns on a dime    But I ain't goin' nowhere, tonight    I ain't been goin' nowhere for quite awhile    Can't tell the truth in a house of lies    Can't explain what I don't know    One shot, one beer and a kiss before I go       One more kiss 'fore I go    One more night and day    Breath all heavy and slow    One shot, one beer and a kiss before I go       I'll miss those nights at the bar    With every girl all loaded like freights    And the pain in the morning comes as easy as it goes    Can't find the truth in a house of lies    And you can't see tomorrow with yesterday's eyes    One shot, one beer and a place where nobody cries       One more kiss 'fore I go    One more night and day    Breath all heavy and slow    One shot, one beer and a kiss before I go
